welcome, friend!

Hi! I'm Dana.  


I have been blessed to call Wilmington since 2013.  Before moving here full time, I traveled the country working as an associate producer for HBO on shows such as VEEP, Eastbound and Down and Vice Principals.  My husband and I actually met on the set of the TV show One Tree Hill! This town is a special place to us and we feel lucky to be able to raise our two boys here.  In my down time, I love taking my boys to the beach and hunting for hermit crabs or sand piggies and watching the sunset.  My favorite colors in the world are created by a Wrightsville Beach sunset.

"We had the absolute best experience with Dana for my husband’s 50th surprise birthday party! She captured not only the big moments but also all the fun and meaningful in between moments that really told the story of the night. Every guest, every laugh, every special detail was beautifully documented. She was professional, warm, and made everyone feel comfortable in front of the camera. The photos are something we’ll treasure forever, and I couldn’t be more grateful for her talent and eye for detail. Highly recommend her for any special occasion!"

"Dana was an absolute gem! Her photos were stunning, but it was her warm personality and incredible talent that truly set her apart. She had an amazing ability to capture the perfect moments while making everyone feel at ease, our guests couldn’t stop raving about her! You will be so glad you chose her!"

"Dana is a fantastic photographer. She took the most beautiful family pictures for us. We've never looked so good. She was so comfortable to work with and was very understanding and fun with my 2 little ones. You won't regret hiring her as your photographer."

MATT C.


"Dana was an amazing helping hand. She helped me put together the best surprise proposal for my girlfriend. Every step of the way I felt I had made the right decision because I had such a great planner/photographer on the other side assisting me. Dana got such high quality photos of the best moment of our lives and we will forever cherish them. I always thought getting photographed professionally would be so awkward and unsettling but I was completely blown away with our experience during the shoot following the proposal. If you are like me and need help planning or don’t think you will feel comfortable getting professional photos done you’ve got to go with Dana, she will blow you away like she did with us!"
